Poor Gwen!! I really did wish that she shouldn't have succumbed to such nonsense and resorted to explaining herself and justifying the sort of person she really was.
Gwen, we love you and we all know that you're a nice and responsible girl, and your music and show were just artistic expressions of a very talented musician and entertainer. 
Fable and I had decided to purchase the most expensive tickets (RM385) in anticipation that we would get good seats and enjoy the show. After all, we loved Gwen and it wasn't like you get to see her live frequently. But by the time I bought the tickets last month, the front 25 rows were already taken up. Wah, so laku! When we were seated, we were somewhere in the middle of the stadium liao. We still got a good direct view of the stage, but because the chairs were all placed on the flat floor, our view was somewhat blocked by people seated in front. But it didn't matter really, because when the lights dimmed and music started, everyone got excited and stood up. And stand we did.... till the end of the show!! And oh, we also stood up for a few minutes before the show started when the Negaraku was played. A bit strange and out of place, but I suppose it was one of the guidelines that Gwen had agreed to follow. Whatever la.The show was great although the sound system was quite a disappointment. Gwen's performance and showomanship were excellent, albeit no skin was exposed (she duly complied with the ridiculous regulations by wearing black leotard underneath her crazy costumes). The stadium was packed, full house. Everyone was on their feet, jumping and dancing to her upbeat songs which were powerfully delivered by her great vocals and supported by eight equally crazy dancers.
The audience was mad, the screams were deafening, bodies moving around to the beat of the music uninhibited; everyone was just simply having a good time. I was screaming/cheering and singing most of the time. It was almost like a screaming/cheering competition. There was this strange girl who came and sat on Fable's chair halfway through. At one point, she looked at me when I screamed, and she smiled and then she also decided scream! A few girls behind me screamed and screamed and when we exchanged glances, we all smiled, and screamed even louder as we all nodded our heads in approval. Such madness!
At one point, Gwen ran by the side and towards the opposite end of the hall where the audience at the back were. She mingled with the crowd and held her hand up to let the audience touch her. How awesome is that! Aiya, how lucky these people are, paid the cheapest and got so close to her and even got to touch her hand! Cheh! Very emm kam muoan. So jealous!!! She stayed there a while longer as she sang Cool.
It was an unforgettably beautiful experience. A blast! But some people did believe that the whole thing was indeed sinful and against their God's wishes. I can almost hear them waving their finger in disapproval and condemnation at all 10,000 of us: Absolutely immoral!
